i am just a newb, and just booted for the first time tonight, but when that screen came up it took longer than i expected (i began to get nervous) if your machine is slow maybe try giving it a couple of minutes...by no means am i offering this with any claim of tech. knowledge, just noticed that earlier and thought there might be a small chance this is the case

instead of just hitting enter, type failsafe at the command. If it works, then you know it is having troubles with some of you hardware. you can then use the no {usb, firewire etc....} command to try find the problem. just a suggestion

Some information on what hardware you have in the machine would be nice. A couple of things to try in the mean time at the boot: prompt type in knoppix testcd to make sure you do not have a bad CD and just failsafe to boot with almost no hardware detection some other cheat codes you may want to have a look at and try.
